Isi artikel
The Hamptons, a string of small towns on the south shore of Long Island, have long been a playground for America's affluent. Nowadays the merely rich are being crimped by the ultra-wealthy. In August it can cost $400,000 to rent a fancy house there. Thirty years ago, Loudoun County, just outside Washington, DC, in Northern Virginia, was a rural backwater with a rich history. Between Loudoun County and north-west Washington, DC, there are over 800,000 people in exclusive postcodes that are home to the best-educated and wealthiest 5% of the population, dubbed superzips. The Hamptons and Washington's chic suburbs offer two snapshots of the most striking characteristic of American inequality: the surge in wealth at the top.
